CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR Star Jeremy Renner Weighs In On A Possible Netflix Series For HAWKEYE
Jeremy Renner has never been too happy with how much screentime Hawkeye received in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but would the actor be open to playing the archer in a thirteen part Netflix series?
Jeremy Renner wasn't happy about his limited role in The Avengers and was cut from Captain America: The Winter Soldier before even getting to shoot his scenes, but the archer was given a much more significant role in both Avengers: Age of Ultron and Captain America: Civil War. It seems like that may have satisfied him for now though as Renner doesn't seem overly keen on his own Netflix series!
He's certainly open to the idea, as he had this to say when IGN asked him to weigh in on the possibility of that happening. "I don't know the practicality of that. Any of these characters that I play, I'd love to dig in and do them more. I never feel like I get enough time with any character I play, and [Hawkeye] is certainly one of them." He's open to the idea then, but not exactly campaigning for it!
Do you think a character like Netflix should get his own series? Let us know your thoughts below.
